all depends on how bad you need the beavers. The most ice i have went through was 6 to 8 inches out by the feed beds.If you locate there runs coming out of the house the ice will be very thin compared to the ice farther away.

Years back when beaver were worth something I often power sawed thru 20 inches of ice to set for them.

The only better than chopping through a foot of ice,is then
having to carry the beavers for half a mile.
